I use frugal Exprimo 5x15 as the default Pupplet on my T60 Lenovo lappie, 2GB RAM.

Forget "mobile office" - this is my universe-in-a-box.

I need to work out default app file management with automatic FF upgrades - there's a tute somewhere I guess, but I haven't found it yet.

We have only laptops and netbooks here which handle all famaily and business apps.

Other than a couple of old ones temporarily dedicated to educational apps for the children (they use MS versions of windows so are not allowed on the Internet) -- all of the others use only Puppy Linux.

5x15 has a couple of real helpful apps in Network that were not in 5x14 -- perfect timing as I just hooked a 1.5TB HDD to the router and needed to sort out the addressing._________________Thanks! DavidHome page: http://nevils-station.comDon't googleSearch!http://duckduckgo.com

To avoid cross-posting I will just link as I realized that the thread was for Puppy Lucid 5.2.5 and my interest is here on Exprimo:

Hrm, that path is part of Python on all my computers, but I'm running Kubuntu. I know it is also configured like that (by default) on Ubuntu, Debian and Fedora. Perhaps your Linux distro is not set up properly?

That's not going to work. You're running Python, setting a variable within that Python interpreter, then closing that interpreter and running another one. That's like running one e-mail program, creating a message in it, closing it, opening a totally different e-mail program and expecting the e-mail to magically appear in that program.

You are talking over my head ... where my eyes don't glass-over my mind reminds me that every time I try to change things I break them.

Could someone write a python-PET for dpup/exprimo which makes the necessary changes to paths for python-related apps?

Might there be many python apps that users would like access to but which fail the same as this one?_________________Thanks! DavidHome page: http://nevils-station.comDon't googleSearch!http://duckduckgo.com

I had an Acer Aspire One 722 with the Atheros Wifi card and it worked fine on 11.04. So we bought 200 of them for our school. However these all came with the Broadcom BCM4313 wireless card and there are issues. It is using the brcmsmac driver and they connect initially. However after a time (sometimes just a few webpages) some of them lose connection. However, they still have an IP and network-manager says they are connected, but no pages load and you can't ping anything on the LAN or internet. A disconnect/reconnect can fix it, but sometimes a restart is required. It happens frequently so is a major issue. Lots of broadcom drivers are blacklisted: bcm43xx, b43, brcm80211. Any ideas or experiences with the broadcom4313 card? Please save these computers from a Windows fate!

In case of Broadcom wifi hardware, on newer releases of Ubuntu and Mint and maybe others, the brcmsmac open source driver handles the BCM4313 wireless card and does a decent job. However, it is interfered with by an older one: bcma. If you're seeing frequent random disconnections for wireless networks, try disabling bcma by blacklisting it:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-bcma.conf
blacklist bcma

It seems you will need ati catalyst 12.9 beta version ( the very latest) and if it comes with BCM4313 which uses brcmsmac, it should be working with 5.X.15 ( the support is there, as it is in 2.6.39.4 kernel, in place)

Also 5.X.3.4.12 should support it with newer brcmsmac (well, it has that bcma dependency)

Yes I have exactly the same problem with dpup exprimo 5.x.15
A heavy encrypted savefile cannot be accessed any more afterwards.
I found a .pet (on this thread, or on another thread, I forgot where it was) that should fix this problem, but it didn't help.

I have noticed your problems with heavy encryption when using usb savefile. But...I dont know the reason to the problem. That losetup-FULL binary fix has been implemented. One bug has been trashed...so the problem lies somewhere else.
If none can provide any insight, I am quite clueless atm.

I dont use encryptions with savefiles, so I dont even have much experience with them.
